Try it with Regan's Orange Bitters or Fee Bros as well. Thanks for pronouncing Maraschino right...I am sure you've heard plenty of people say it the wrong way as well. Its the cocktail worlds equivalent of bruschetta in that way. thanks for comprehensive site
Seems to be a less bitter version of the original and maybe more palatable to most. I was told the name bijou refers to the 3 colors of the original recipe and thus the namesake is lost in this version. The chartreuse represents emeralds, gin =diamonds, sweet vermouth =rubies (i believe). Hence the name jewel has significance. Probably worth noting.

Warming the peel from the inside works well for me...that way the oils are released from the inside and not burnt until expressed.
